Hibachi Steak Bowls: Bring the Japanese Steakhouse Experience Home

Author: David Andersson
Total Time: 30 minutes

Description

At its core, a Hibachi Steak Bowl is a deconstructed version of the beloved teppanyaki-style meal served at Japanese steakhouses like Benihana and Kobe. Instead of everything being cooked and presented on a large communal griddle, we’re taking those same fantastic components – perfectly seared steak, tender-crisp vegetables, flavorful fried rice, and that irresistible creamy Yum Yum sauce – and assembling them into convenient, personal bowls. This makes for an ideal weeknight dinner, a fantastic meal prep option, or even a fun, interactive family dinner where everyone can customize their own bowl.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Steak:

2 lbs top sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 tbsp mirin
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp ginger paste
1 tsp sesame oil
½ tsp white pepper (or black pepper)
Kosher salt, to taste
2 tbsp Japanese BBQ sauce or teriyaki sauce

For the Vegetables:

2 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp sesame oil
3 medium carrots, sliced
2 medium zucchinis, sliced
5 oz mushrooms, halved
½ tsp garlic powder
Salt & pepper, to taste

For Assembly:

4 cups cooked fried rice
Yum Yum sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Optional: sesame seeds, green onions for garnish

Instructions

Marinate the Steak In a bowl or zip-top bag, combine steak with mirin, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, white pepper, and salt. Toss to coat and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Sauté the Vegetables Heat butter and sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add carrots, zucchini, and mushrooms. Cook for 10–15 minutes, tossing often, until tender and golden. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Transfer to a plate.
Cook the Steak In the same pan, add remaining butter and sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook for 3–4 minutes, tossing often, until seared. Avoid overcooking. Drizzle with Japanese BBQ or teriyaki sauce and toss to coat.
Assemble the Bowls Divide fried rice into bowls. Top with steak and sautéed vegetables. Drizzle with Yum Yum sauce and garnish with sesame seeds or green onions if desired.

Notes

Pair with homemade yum yum sauce or ginger sauce for that classic Japanese steakhouse flavor. Add sautéed zucchini, mushrooms, or shrimp for extra variety.
